RECIPE INGREDIENTS
To make this delightful buffalo wild wings garlic parmesan baked chicken pasta recipe, you will need the following ingredients:
Ingredients
- Boneless skinless chicken breasts x 2 large ones
- Low-carb, high-protein noodles (I used 8 oz. penne but fettuccine or spaghetti would work as well)

- Garlic: 4 cloves, minced
- Butter: 4 tablespoons
- Heavy Cream: 1 cup
- Buffalo Wild Wings Parmesan Garlic Dry Seasoning 1 cup
- Olive Oil: 2 tablespoons
- Salt and Pepper: to taste
- Chopped Coriander Leaves: 2 tbsp (For Garnish)
- 1tbsp Red Pepper Flakes, turns up the heat on this meal
MEASURES & PRECAUTIONS
- Cook the pasta until it’s almost done, as the sauce will finish cooking it.
- Slice garlic as thin and fine as possible, so no large cloves get between the taste of other ingredients.
- I prefer to fresh grate some parm which will make it taste a bit better and give you maximum creamy texture.
- Combine Before Shaking To Use

RECIPE TIPS & VARIATIONS
-
For the Crock Pot method, start by seasoning the chicken and mixing it well. Add the sauce, but keep the bars separate for now. Cook on low heat until the chicken is tender.
Just before serving, use a propane torch to caramelize the top with parmesan cheese. Then, add some roasted red peppers, basil, and Thai-chopped broccoli to give it some extra flavor.
Finally, season with 1 teaspoon of black pepper. In a separate step, mix the corn paste and let it cool. Then, top it with shredded cheese, popsicle stickers, and chips.
Cook in a pan until the cheese is melted and bubbly. This adds a nice crispy topping to your dish.

You can amp this baby way up by adding more red pepper flakes or some hot sauce.
